CALGARY -

If Stephen Avenue looked like it traveled back in time Tuesday, it wasn't your imagination.

That's because the street was transformed into a set for a limited series being shot in Calgary. Under the Banner of Heaven is based on a book by Jon Krakauer. The series stars former Spiderman Andrew Garfield and is being produced by Oscar winner Ron Howard.

A number of 1980's vehicles lined Stephen Avenue during filming Tuesday night. Scenes are also being shot in Carstairs.

The series will be broadcast on the FX network.
